DOMBROSKI COMPARTMENT BOX AND ASSEMBLY FOR USE THEREIN 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed Nov. 16, 1935 Patented Apr. 20, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE COMPARTMENT BOX AND ASSEMBLY FOR USE THEREIN 12 Claims.

My invention relates to improvements in com partment boxes of the type adapted for use with small articles, such as candy, nuts, cigars, dentists tools, jewelry, etc. and preferably provided with means for the ready selective dispensing therefrom of different types of articles.

A further object of my invention is to provide a box constructed entirely of cardboard, paper and corrugated board which may be readily as- IO sembled in a facile and relatively cheap manner.

A further object of my invention relates to improvements in the knob means for each drawer and the provision of means to prevent the knob means from sticking through an exterior layer of wrapping material.

A further object of my invention is to provide a box assembly which entirely eliminates any fastening means to join the interior parts thereof together and which therefore may be more 29 quickly assembled.

A further object of my invention is to provide a compartment box comprising a plurality of tiers of drawer compartments which may be built up if desired to any desired number of tiers and 5 further if desired of any desired number of horizontally arranged individual drawer compartments in each tier.

A further object of my invention is to provide a compartment box to receive drawers in which during the assembly thereof the different parts thereof become automatically self-aligned.

A further object of my invention due to the inherent compressibility of the layers of corrugated board and the pivotable end wall for each drawer compartment I preferably employ is to provide means to automatically grip each drawer when inserted and retain it in a closed or open position.

A further object of my invention is to provide a compartment box which maybe readily sold as a unit and on which selective plaques may be readily inserted bearing the advertising matter of a selected vendor and a further object of my invention is to at all times display the advertising matter of the vendor even when the box is being used as there is no pivoted or removable cover as in ordinary types of candy boxes and it is apparent that advertising matter on 5 the top thereof will be continuously displayed even as each drawer is opened for dispensing purposes.

These and such other objects of my invention as may hereinafter appear will be best understood from a description of the accompanying drawings, which illustrate thereof.

In the drawings, wherein like characters of reference indicate like parts throughout, I2 generally indicates a compartment box constructed in accordance with the teachings of my invention. The construction of my improved box will probably be best understood if it be described in accordance with its method of manufacture.

an embodiment As the cover for my improved box I preferably employ a continuous cardboard strip l4 comprising the base IS, a rear wall I 8 projecting rearwardly from said base adapted to be infolded upwardly along the fold line 28 to form the rear Wall of said cover, the end walls 22 projecting integrally laterally from said base adapted to be infolded upwardly along the respective fold lines 24 to form the box end walls, and a front wall 26 projecting integrally forwardly from said base adapted to be infolded upwardly along the fold line 28 to form the front wall of said box having a plurality of tiers, in the embodiment shown, an upper tier 38 and a lower tier 35 of drawer holes therein, in the embodiment shown, the plurality of horizontally aligned drawer holes 32 forming the upper tier 3!! and a single drawer hole 32 forming said lower tier 30 and a top 34 projecting integrally forwardly from said front wall 25 adapted to be infolded along the fold line 35 over said box to form the top wall thereof and to have the end 38 abut the upper end of said rear wall it when arranged in assembled position.

I also employ a plurality of oblong hollow drawer compartments 40 having an interior of substantially the size of said drawer holes 32 and 32 respectively and of substantially the depth of said box each comprising a continuous piece of cardboard 4!] having at one end thereof the base 42 and projecting continuously laterally from one end thereof an end wall 44 adapted to be infolded upwardly along the fold line 46 to form a drawer compartment end wall, the top portion 48 continuous with the end of said end wall 44 adapted to be infolded over said base along the fold line 50 to form the top of said drawer compartment and the end wall 52 integral and continuous with said top adapted to be infolded downwardly along the fold line 54 to form the opposite end wall of said drawer compartment and to pivot in use along said fold line 54, if it be desired to employ the automatic drawer-retaining feature of my invention later to be described, if not having the end thereof adapted to be permanently secured to the opposite end of said base.

As shown I also employ layers 56 of compressible strip spacing material adapted to be interposed horizontally and vertically between the cover base, top and end walls and each respective compartment base, top and end walls in each tier and also between the tiers and drawer compartments in a single tier to build up an assembly to make up the interior of the box of a size slightly greater than the interior of the box. While any suitable type of layers of compressible strip spacing material if desired of different thickness may be employed for this purpose, I preferably employ a corrugated board, which of itself is inherently somewhat compressible, although other types of compressible strip spacing material, such as felt, wadding, paper, etc. may be employed. The respective tiers 58 and 58 of drawer compartments 40 are arranged one above the other and if a plurality of horizontally aligned drawer compartments be employed they are suitably horizontally aligned and the layers of strip material suitably inserted above, below and intermediate said tiers and at the respective outer end of each compartment box in each tier and in between the respective drawer compartments in a tier. In the preferred embodiment, the lower tier 58* consists entirely of an enlarged drawer compartment 40 and the upper tier 58 consists of the smaller horizontally aligned drawer compartments 46 and 40 These, however, are first assembled from the bottom up and as shown in Fig. 3 I lay a plurality of layers 62 of corrugated board of the length and depth of the box on a base and superimpose thereon the enlarged lower drawer compartment 46 I then lay a plurality of thin elongated layers or strips of corrugated board 64 exterior of the outer ends of the drawer compartment 4%. In the embodiment shown the outer respective layer 68 is thicker than the inner respective layer 68 and I thus may selectively employ the desired number of layers of strip material to build up the composite box to the desired size and to accurately align the front ends of each respective drawer compartment with the respective drawer holes 32 and 32 in the cover when assembled and I may selectively employ layers of corrugated board of different thicknesses so as to build the box structure up substantially to its desired size. I then superimpose on top of the compartment box 48 the desired number of layers or spacing strips of corrugated board Hi to space the respective ends of the drawer compartments 40 and 48 substantially opposite the drawer holes 32 in the cover. I then interpose the desired number of spacing strips E2 of the proper thickness between the drawer compartments 40 and 40 to horizontally align the respective ends thereof with the drawer holes 32 and I add at the outer ends of the respective drawer compartments the desired number of spacing strips 24, in this instance with the inner layer 18 thereof of less thickness than the outer layer 8!]. I then superimpose on top of the upper drawer compartments 48 and 48 the desired number of spacing layers 82 of strip material to build the assembly shown in Fig. 2 up to the desired size, the whole assembly both vertically and horizontally being preferably of slightly greater area than the desired box so that when the cover I6 is mounted therearound the spacing layers may be compressed to the desired size of the box to provide a finished box which will not rattle and to bring the front ends of the drawer compartments accurately in alignment with the respective drawer holes in the cover. Thus the assembly shown in Fig. 3 is inserted over the base l6 of the cover shown in Fig. 2, the respective rear and side walls bent upwards, the front wall bent upwards and the top wall bent over the assembly to compress the box to the desired size for the abovementioned purposes.

I then provide means to bind said cover around the walls of said box to maintain said drawer compartments and spacing layers together as the interior of a unitary box. The respective ends of the respective walls of the cover may be attached together by glue if desired, but I may suitably secure the walls of the cover together around the assembly by individual gummed paper strips, or by wrapping a covering entirely around the exterior of the box and suitably secure it thereto. In my preferred embodiment I preferably employ for this purpose the gummed paper strips 54 and the thin paper covering 85. I also employ cardboard drawers 86 which may be conveniently made from the blanks shown in Fig. 6 by bending the respective front and rear ends and side walls upwardly along the fold lines shown therein and suitably securing them together. The front wall of each respective drawer is preferably provided with a knob hole 88. The drawers 86 are made of a size to fit the respective drawer holes in the cover and when inserted and moved to a closed position within the drawer compartments of a size to be compactly retained therein by the freely pivoted end walls 52 of each respective drawer compartment being urged inwardly by the compressed sheets of strip material.

I also preferably employ the cardboard strips Q0 of greater area than the front drawer walls adapted to be secured thereto to overlap the front of the box exterior of the drawer holes for air and dust sealing purposes and to limit the rearward movement of the drawers and having the knob holes as.

I also employ a preferred type of knob means 92 as the handle of each respective drawer, in my preferred embodiment, comprising the rear portion 94 having a base 96 adapted to abut the rear surface of the wall of each drawer and a tapered shank 9'! adapted to project outwardly through the respective holes 88 in the front wall of each drawer and its respective strip 90, and the knob handle portion 98 having the boss I08 projecting rearwardly therefrom adapted to abut the front wall of each drawer or strip 9i] where employed to retain or assist in retaining the strips 80 to the front wall of each respective drawer and provided with a central hole I62 therein for frictionally retaining the end of the tapered shank 9'1 therein to retain said knob means to the drawer. Said knob means may have the portions thereof made of wood, bakelite, pulp, glass or any other suitable material.

To prevent the knob means from sticking through a wrap-per when inserted around the box, I also preferably employ the supplemental cardboard strips Hi l of greater area than the respective top and bottom of said box so that when the supplemental wrapper is wrapped around said box it will clear the drawer knobs. It is also apparent that the supplemental strips I64 add to the beauty of the finished box.

It is obvious that if desired any desired number of tiers of drawers may be employed, by making the appropriate holes therefor in the cover and employing the suitable number of superim' posed tiers of draw compartments and the suitable amount of spacing material. It is also obvious that the number of drawers in each respective tier may be similarly varied.

I also preferably employ a plaque I06 which may have the advertising matter I98 printed thereon distinctive of each individual vendor supplementally selectively secured to the top of said box. It is thus apparent that the. boxes may be made up by the manufacturer thereof in quantity and selective plaques inserted thereon as ordered.

It is apparent that with this construction I provide means to positively retain the drawers in closed or open position, the strip material tending to press the pivoted wall 52 of each respective drawer compartment inwardly to abut its respective drawer wall to retain its drawer in its respective open or closed position as left by the user.

It is also apparent that I have provided a novel type of compartment box in which the fastening means for the interior is entirely eliminated and which may be constructed of a minimum number of standard and simple parts, such. as cardboard and corrugated board and one which may be readily assembled by the manufacturer with a minimum amount of effort. It is also apparent that I have provided in a candy box, individual compartments for each species of candy, whereby the desired species of candy may be selectively withdrawn without pawing the remainder of the candy and it is further apparent that I have provided a box in which the advertising indicia of the vendor may be continuously displayed in use.

It is understood that my invention is not limited to the specific embodiment shown and that various deviations may be made therefrom without departing from the spirit and scope of the ap pended claims.
